Sam's face stayed pleasant but his eyes looked weary. He sa...
"What am I going to do with that girl?" I thought to myself as Cindy McCarty pranced into my office. Cindy was my newest assistant, and she'd come highly recommended by the Dean of Students at Agnes Scott College, my alma mater. And, to be perfectly honest, I had no complaints about her work. Her ability to track down information had already proven a great...
*** This is a sort of split chapter in terms of locales, since a lot is going on in more than one place. Amelia still struggles a little to try to plan something for when Craig gets home - while Craig himself tries to urge his mechanical steed faster, hopefully without him needing to die for it. Later on in the afternoon, I'll reveal another pair of charac...

I welcome your feedback so I can become a better writer.] Emaline, Celia and Nessa decided to take an early Sunday morning walk. They liked to explore the farthest edges of the plantation from time to time. It was the closest thing they h...
Author's note: I failed to include several pages of key narrative when I published this previously. For those who may have read the first edition, you can skip to the word "scheme" and read from there...or feel free to read the whole thing again! When Emmy arrived for her final class, Charlie was attentive. Things had moved quickly, as she knew they would,...
"You're kidding me? I actually got nominated?" Katie Nolan said to herself as she read the words on her computer, unwilling to believe that the little show she did basically out of a closet, "Garbage Time," could have ever even become a hit, let alone get nominated for two Sports Emmy awards. And yet as Katie read the words over and over again, she was sure...
This is my second entry to the April Fool's Day Contest. Please be kind with your ratings! The more stars that you feel you can give, the better. ********************* There was no question my ex was pretty. Everyone agreed about that.
